Main issues, as the Inspector framed them

The effect of the hip to gable extension, dormer roof form and double storey side extension on the character and appearance of the host dwelling, nearby property and the streetscene.

What decided it

The cumulative visual impact of the hip to gable extension, dormer and double storey side extension would be unduly prominent, visually incongruous and fail to be subordinate to the original dwelling, thereby harming the character and appearance of the host dwelling and streetscene in breach of development plan policies.

Framework references: 12

Plan policies cited: Policy BE1, Policy DMHB 11, Policy DMHB 12, Policy DMHD 1, Policy D3, Policy D4

What an account adds

Draw a red line around your site and the appraisal follows.

Heritage. Listed buildings by grade and distance, conservation areas, scheduled monuments, registered parks and gardens, heritage at risk.
Landscape and environment. Green belt, national parks and national landscapes, SSSIs, ancient woodland, SPA, SAC and Ramsar sites, nutrient catchments.
Flooding. Flood zones 2 and 3, surface water, and both again with climate change.
Transport. The 800 metre station catchment and service frequency, bus stops with their weekday frequency, the cycle network, and the Framework’s transport tests measured for the site.

Then the development plan position, the housing land supply as an Inspector last accepted it, and every appeal decided around the site with its letter.

Casework that chases the deadlines. Applications, appeals and conditions with their statutory dates.

The judgement stays yours. The tool gathers the material and dates it.
